Abstract

The effect of dissolved Ca ion from plaster mold during slip casting on the microstructure and fracture toughness of high-purity sintered alumina were investigated. When the alumina slip containing 1000 ppm MgO was casted on a calcined alumina mold, the sintered compact had a homogeneous microstructure with equiaxed grains. However, when the same slip was casted on a plaster mold, the sintered compact consisted of the mixture of equiaxed and elongated grains. This inhomogeneous microstructure was also observed in the sintered alumina doped with 100o ppm MgO and 100 ppm CaO whose compact was prepared on the calcined alumina mold indicating that the inhomogeneity was caused by CaO. It was found that the specimen containing both MgO and CaO had higher fracture toughness than that containing MgO only. The enhanced fracture toughness by CaO is probably due to the crack deflection along the boundaries of the elongated grains.
